Due to the uncertainty arising from Covid-19 the board withdrew its proposal to pay a dividend in May 2020 with the intention of evaluating the situation later in the year.
The board now considers that, thanks to the group’s strong performance and liquidity, that conditions are suitable to pay a dividend according to the original proposal.
Therefore, the board has decided to call an extraordinary general meeting on 29 September 2020 to decide on a proposed dividend of 3.50 SEK per share. This is within the allowable range according to the equity included in the balance sheet which was approved by the annual general meeting on 14 May 2020.
